Do we have any fans of Christopher Paolini?

I have the hardcover books of Eldest and Brisinger, which are the 2nd and 3rd installments of his trilogy.

Eragon was a good read. The movie was okay.

What are your thoughts?

Humidity is rising
Barometer's getting low
According to our sources
The street's the place to go

Cause' tonight for the first time
Just about half past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men

It's raining men
Hallejulah
It's raining men
Amen

It's raining men
Hallejulah
It's raining men

To rearranged the sky
So that each and every woman
Could find the perfect guy

Hear the thunder
Don't you loose your head
Rip off the roof and stay in bed

Sorry, I know this doesn't really fit....oh well, I guess it does since it's a fantasy thread.

Really cool Ruth! I love it

I just downloaded this. Will be reading on how the game is played.

Morashi’tar’s struggle to enter the surface continues…

Demons and magicians exchange powerful spells as knights and demon servants exchange clashes using odd spiked weapons against hardened steel swords. Blood spill the grounds covering the once peaceful fields that farmers use to plow on. Massive armies try to breach through the many flanks of human, dwarf and elfin resisters who have only small successes in each attempt. The war continues on its 3rd Era as slowly the dark servants find a way to enter the lands for the first time. The darkening clouds with occasional lightning show favor for evil as many lives continue to fall.

A ripe and aged hardened faced man sits on his Pegasus in the background watches intently his men getting slaughtered by the stronger opponent. His scars across his face show the many victories he has won serving his king’s kingdom. His face changes slowly as he sees for the first time that his efforts are stalling. A rider on a swift horse approaches and salutes his commander.

“You have sent for me my lord,” he says in a high pitched voice somewhat shakened at the scenery of battle that the hill presents to him for the first time.

“Send messengers to warn our king that we need reinforcements immediately. Also send more messengers to warn neighboring towns to prepare for attacks. We will do whatever we can to give time for our king to assemble his men,” he orders in a slow defeated tone.

“Yes my lord,” the messenger replies.

He turns his horse immediately and rides down the hill to gather more messengers to carry out the orders.

“My lord the high elvin magician’s are successful in keeping the ninth round of demons inside the cave, yet the dwarven warriors are retreating at the right bay of our flanks,” says a young man with blonde hair sitting on a horse.

“Send in our last round of knights to strengthen the dwarven warrior’s position,” the lord replies. “I shall accompany them soon,” he finishes. The young knight looks at his lord for a moment in shock then urges his horse to descend down the hill to give out the orders.

The day of reckoning has come where hope is the only option against such a magnificent force of evil. How many demon lords can there be he ponders, as he sees another group of demon riders on floating horses avoid spells from high elvin magicians. A triangular shaped portal appears a few feet away from the huge cave as grotesque demon riders on flamed red bulls enter the surface for the first time. Magic enshrouds them suddenly as two high elvin magicians battle the nearest demon rider.

The lord unsheathes his glowing sword for the first time and raises it high into the sky. Knights below cheer as their lone paladin hero begins to chant a war message amongst his men. They soon join him singing at the top of their lungs.

The time has come to fight a war
the laughter ends as we push for more

a gash a gush is nothing to feel
a smash with rush is the way to deal

let them come the beasts and burdens
we shall win for the feasts for certain

Battle is upon us! Battle is upon us!
Rattle the fuss. Scatter the dust

One fight, two fight lets us use our might
Three fight, four fight and we will win the fight

“Hooray! Hooray to Lord Denonimas!” cheers the men as their leader urges his pegasus to ride forward to enter battle.

Lord Denonimas continues to sing at the tops of his voice the same war rhythm again gathering his last brigade of knights to fight an enemy that outnumbers his chances.

The time has come to fight a war the
laughter ends as we push for more

a gash a gush is nothing to feel
a smash with rush is the way to deal………….

His men continue to sing with him and charge with jousts pointing at their nearest gargoyles one of the many dark servants of the demon lords.
